In March 2021, the entire staff of the Nevada Democratic Party resigned after the Democratic Socialists of America engineered a coup at the party convention that swept them into power.
Establishment Democrats were shocked. This was the party built by Nevada’s Democratic Patron Saint, Sen. Harry Reid. Reid took a moribund, lifeless party in the 1980s and turned it into a powerhouse political machine by the turn of the 21st century.
The Nevada Independent news site editorialized, “Say Goodbye to the Most Effective Democratic Party in the Country.” Indeed, an anonymous Democratic staffer who resigned rather than work with the socialists was quoted as saying, “I knew I couldn’t work with her and watch her destroy the years of hard work so many operatives put into making our state party the best state party in the country.”
The “her” mentioned by the staffer is Judith Whitmer, an unabashed socialist. Whitmer is running for chairman again in a week but this time, the opposition forces are much better organized. Assemblywoman Daniele Monroe-Moreno of Las Vegas is challenging Whitmer and has lined up an impressive list of powerful state Democrats.
